The Behaviour Change Meeting Group at The University of Manchester has the purpose of bringing together academics and clinicians across several institutes who are working with behaviour change, intervention development and/or implementation theory. We usually meet online on the first Thursday of the month at 3pm, inviting external speakers and internal speakers to discuss and gain feedback on their latest research in the field. We have a range of health and clinical psychologists in the group as well as epidemiologists, nurses and physiotherapists who work with a range of different short-term and long-term conditions in different contexts (public, patient and healthcare professional groups).
If you would like to be added to the email list to hear about future meetings, please contact Rhiannon Hawkes: rhiannon.hawkes@manchester.ac.uk
Our next Behaviour Change Meeting will be held on Thursday 6th November October 2025 at 3pm, where we have Mai Haiba presenting on ‘FAMily based weight loss for breast cancer risk reduction (FAM-BCR), an intervention feasibility study protocol’
Mai Haiba is a final-year PhD candidate in the Division of Cancer Sciences at the University of Manchester, a medical doctor and a dietitian with an MSc in Public Health Nutrition. Her research focuses on developing and testing a family-based weight loss intervention for mothers with overweight or obesity who are at increased risk of breast cancer. She is passionate about women’s and family health and aims to translate behaviour change evidence into real-world weight management and cancer prevention practice.
